I got the book -- it's awesome, almost 600 pages, haven't gotten really into it yet. Tons of photos, colour and b/w and Hoagland seems really angry at NASA. That press conference was this morning, wonder when there will be a video clip of it? Anyone got that yet?

Good Lord. I've seen Mars through a telescope myself. It's red. I don't really care what color the atmosphere is once you're there looking up. When you look at it from here, it's red.

Just the sheer number of people trying to discredit Hoagland makes him very interesting to me. If someone is getting character assassinated by lots of people, you can bet there is some truth to what he says.
[edit on 14-10-2007 by Copernicus]
It is remarkable how Hoagland, Lear and others of their kind can point there collective finger to an object and tell the world it's not the color it appears to be. Lear, for one, claims that there is breathable oxygen atmosphere on the Moon. Never mind all other holes in this argument, the color of the Moon would be different due to scattering of light off O2 molecules. Then again, why bother looking at facts when you can spend hours theorizing about Soul Catchers, Martian cities and all that
Coast to Coast AM Science Advisor Richard C. Hoagland and former Boeing aerospace engineer Mike Bara introduced their just released book Dark Mission. It's a compendium of NASA's lies and deceptions, Hoagland declared.
Here are some of NASA's deceptions that the two authors claim have been foisted upon the American public:
NASA presents itself as a civilian space agency. It's actually a military agency, that won't allow private enterprise space missions to leave orbit, said Hoagland.

A the OK -
My initial thumb-through when the book arrived has made me skeptical, particularly the interpretations of some of the photos. There are claims about large glass structures in certain photos, but right now the "evidence" looks like photographic/film/development artifacts and not the ancient things H. believes them to be.
I'll keep you posted.
I haven't read the book but most of his claims on his web site are easily refuted.
I said the claims on his web site, not the book. Greg
